    Michael Moore making a Bailout documentary

    Not my favorite guy in the world, but if he gets it done should be interesting.

    Right there on his website:

    Friends,

    I am in the middle of shooting my next movie and I am looking for a few brave people who work on Wall Street or in the financial industry to come forward and share with me what they know. Based on those who have already contacted me, I believe there are a number of you who know "the real deal" about the abuses that have been happening. You have information that the American people need to hear. I am humbly asking you for a moment of courage, to be a hero and help me expose the biggest swindle in American history.

    All correspondence with me will be kept confidential. Your identity will be protected and you will decide to what extent you wish to participate in telling the greatest crime story ever told.

    The important thing here is for you to step up as an American and do your duty of shedding some light on this financial collapse. A few good people have already come forward, which leads me to believe there are many more of you out there who know what's going on. Here's your chance to let your fellow citizens in on the truth.

    Looks to be entertaining.

    What do you guys think?

          Sweet. I think his shit is more on point than alot of these fuckers give him credit for. Of course they want you to think he is making shit up.

                  If the average American knew what this whole bailout money was paying for the whole process would never fly.


                  essentially paying off bad bets and fixing balance sheets with money that was never suppose to be there in the first place. It is sad that they get away with it indeed.


                  I just hope he does the film right and keeps it as accurate as possible. No need to stretch this one out IMHO

                                      He wont go after a single Democrat.
                                      He will simply target Wall street execs and anyone Bush appointed in the current administration. The fat fuck is as transparent as a jellyfish.

                                          Great he can point out that in one project 600,000,000 will be spent not creating one job, thats right zero jobs created for 600,000,000 and will cost money to maintain every year after again not producing one job.

                                                          These liberal idiots will never learn.

                                                          The real "abuses" are that the government is using taxpayer money to unconstitutionally bail out banks.

                                                          If he wants to see "abuse", he should go to Washington DC, not Wall Street.

                                                                  But I look forward to seeing it.

Then when the banks themselves imploded from their own greed and poor management, the taxpayers were the ones who bailed them out. And all the while their downfall caused everyday Americans to lose trillions as the stock market tumbled to new lows every day.

                                                                  Gotta love it.

                                                                                              We are not getting anywhere creating a bunch of Zombie institutions who don't lend and have to gobble up bailout money just to survive.

                                                                                              At the very least, null and void all Naked CDS contracts where the beneificary didn't even own the underlying security. Taxpayer is paying insurance claims to institutions who paid a fraction of that amount in premiums.

                                                                                              Think of it like this:


                                                                                              300 people on GFY pay me quarterly premiums to insure a certain security.

                                                                                              Out of those 300 people 20 actually own that security.

                                                                                              I am betting the security won't default so I profit off of the premiums.

                                                                                              20 GFY members the ones who actually own the security are hedging for legit reasons.

                                                                                              280 GFY members are simply betting the security will default so they can collect a huge sum.

                                                                                              The security defaults and I'm forced to payup. I can't because I never had the means to do so in the first place.

                                                                                              I have to get bailed out in order to pay off all the GFY members.



                                                                                              There are two things here that should NEVER have happened.

                                                                                              1) I should of never been allowed to put forth those guarantees without having the means to pay.

                                                                                              2) GFY members should of never been allowed to insure a security that they don't own. - Moral Hazard. Those GFY members for all we know could of done everything in their power to make sure the security defaulted.

                                                                                              The magic of private contracts between individual parties. Not regulated, nobody knows what your holding, the whole thing was just a loophole to evade the rules set in place to prevent this from happening.

                                                                                                  You have always gone into the bank and asked for the most money you could get. The bank then gives you the amount they would like to risk based on what you can pay back. It's a simple market. But the BANKS failed on their end of that equation and gave people whatever they wanted even though they knew a huge percentage would never be able to pay it back. The majority of the fault lies with them.

                                                                                                  If Ferrari suddenly started making crazy loans so every American could drive a Enzo and then ended up going bankrupt when every new owner defaulted, would Ferrari blame the buyers?

                                                                                                      Of course. When you sign the loan YOU are responsible for the payment not Ferrari. Ferrari could give a fuck where you get the money just fucking pay your bills. See its this entitlement attitude and victim mentality that got our country into this mess in the first place, why do you think Obama got voted in? This whole country wants shit for free.

                                                                                                              A stock holder wants to sell his stock for an infinitely high amount and the buyer wants to pay zero. They meet in the middle. When one side fails then the market breaks down. The banks failed in their duties. The repayment of the loan in irrelevant at this point. The loan should have never been made and everyone at the time knew that.

                                                                                                              Yes, borrowers should have known better, but the banks are the professionals in this equation. If a doctor gives you a fatal mix of pills to take home and you take them, do you blame yourself since you ultimately ingested them. Or do you blame the Doctor who was the professional and gave you the bad pills in the first place?

                                                                                                              Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there is no blame for the borrower and they should suffer no consequence. I'm just saying a majority of the blame should fall on the banks. But this is the real world and shit rolls downhill. The taxpayers will clean up the mess and the CEO's have already made off with their millions.

He "Hollywoods" important events that are not suitable/mature for blockbuster movies. If he weren't there there would be room for a *real* voice of opinion. Michael Moore never asks the *tough* questions(see Alex Jones regarding Norad), if he did he would never be allowed on TV.
